Nothing’s better than a family vacation! But for parents traveling with young children, the logistics of childcare don’t necessarily disappear just because you’ve left home.
Maybe you’re attending a destination wedding and need coverage for the ceremony. Or maybe you’ve brought your kids along on a work trip and need a few hours of reliable support.
Oliver’s Nannies offers a solution through FlexCare: a flexible, on-demand childcare membership service designed for families who need professional nanny support without a long-term commitment. Available in select cities, FlexCare connects traveling families with vetted, local caregivers to help make the most of every vacation.

How FlexCare Supports Families on Vacation
Traveling with children requires parents to manage a lot of moving parts. FlexCare fits into your trip whenever you need it most.
Evening babysitting is one of the most common requests from traveling families. After a day of activities, having a qualified caregiver take over so you can enjoy date night or attend an event makes a real difference.
Daytime coverage gives parents the freedom to attend meetings, explore independently, or simply recharge with some alone time—all while knowing their kids are in great hands.
4 Ways to Use FlexCare on Your Family Vacation
FlexCare is a practical childcare solution for a range of travel scenarios. Here are just a few situations where our families find it to be especially helpful:
- Date nights or adult-only activities. A museum tour, a nice dinner, or an evening event doesn’t have to be off the table. FlexCare gives you the coverage to enjoy adult time with peace of mind.
- Weddings or group events. You’re there to celebrate! Booking a FlexCare nanny for the big day lets you be present for the moments that matter.
- Work trips with children. Many parents bring their kids along on extended work travel. Having reliable, temporary childcare during meeting hours makes these trips more sustainable for the whole family.
- Extended stays in one location. The longer you’re away from home, the more valuable consistent support becomes. FlexCare’s flexible scheduling means you can book care for a single afternoon or across multiple days, depending on what your trip requires.
How to Book FlexCare in Your Travel Destination
Our FlexCare services are designed to be as seamless and straightforward for parents as possible, but planning ahead makes the process even smoother.
